Sycamore Row is the sequel to Grisham's debut novel, A Time to Kill, bringing back attorney Jake Brigance in a complex legal battle. Set in Clanton, Mississippi, the story begins when Seth Hubbard, a wealthy man dying of cancer, hangs himself from a sycamore tree, leaving behind a handwritten will that bequeaths the majority of his fortune to his Black housekeeper, Lettie Lang, excluding his children. This unexpected decision ignites a contentious court case, delving into themes of racial injustice, family secrets, and the legacy of a dark past. As Brigance navigates the intricacies of the legal system, he uncovers a history of land theft and lynching tied to the very sycamore tree where Hubbard ended his life. Grisham masterfully intertwines courtroom drama with a poignant exploration of Southern history and the enduring quest for justice.
